LocalVar and if-statements - i3670 - 11-24-2012
As you can read in the script. If all the machines are running the player can use the item on the area but if only 4 or less are you can't. I thought this script would work but it will not.
void OnStart()
{
for(int i=1;i<=6;i++){
AddUseItemCallback("UsingOrbPieces", "orb_piece_"+i+"", "AreaUseOrbPiece","UseOrbPiecesOnArea", false);
}
}
///Using the orb pieces///
void UseOrbPiecesOnArea(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
{
if(GetLocalVarInt("AllMachineryUpAndRunning") == 5)
{
RemoveItem(asItem);
AddLocalVarInt("OrbPutTogether", 1);
OrbAllDoneLocal();
}
else if(GetLocalVarInt("AllMachineryUpAndRunning") == 0 && GetLocalVarInt("AllMachineryUpAndRunning") == 1 &&
GetLocalVarInt("AllMachineryUpAndRunning") == 2 && GetLocalVarInt("AllMachineryUpAndRunning") == 3 && GetLocalVarInt("AllMachineryUpAndRunning") == 4)
{
SetMessage("Descriptions", "Hint_15", 3.0f);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "27_thump.snt", "Player", 0.1f, true);
}
}
RE: LocalVar and if-statements - The chaser - 11-25-2012
The message appears screwed up, i3670. I can't read the script.
RE: LocalVar and if-statements - i3670 - 11-25-2012
screwed up how?
RE: LocalVar and if-statements - The chaser - 11-25-2012
It appears like:
void OnStart()
{
for(int i=1;i<=6;i++){
AddUseItemCallback("UsingOrbPieces", "orb_piece_"+i+"", "AreaUseOrbPiece","UseOrbPiecesOnArea", false);
}
}
///Using the orb pieces///
void UseOrbPiecesOnArea(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
{
if(GetLocalVarInt("AllMachineryUpAndRunning") == 5)
{
RemoveItem(asItem);
AddLocalVarInt("OrbPutTogether", 1);
OrbAllDoneLocal();
}
else if(GetLocalVarInt("AllMachineryUpAndRunning") == 0 && GetLocalVarInt("AllMachineryUpAndRunning") == 1 &&
GetLocalVarInt("AllMachineryUpAndRunning") == 2 &&
GetLocalVarInt("AllMachineryUpAndRunning") == 3 &&
GetLocalVarInt("AllMachineryUpAndRunning") == 4)
{
SetMessage("Descriptions", "Hint_15", 3.0f);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "27_thump.snt", "Player", 0.1f, true);
}
}
Wait... what the heck? Anyway, you have a bigger script, right? If you have more from this machine, you should post it. Maybe the issue is somewhere else.
RE: LocalVar and if-statements - i3670 - 11-25-2012
Of course I have a bigger script but, I don't know if I feel like posting 250 lines of code when most of it is irrelevant to this part of the script.
RE: LocalVar and if-statements - Your Computer - 11-25-2012
Do you realize that AllMachineryUpAndRunning can't be different numbers at the same time? So even though AllMachineryUpAndRunning doesn't equal 5, the else-if will never evaluate to true. Also, it may be necessary to know how AllMachineryUpAndRunning is incremented.
RE: LocalVar and if-statements - i3670 - 11-25-2012
Yes I do realize that the Local can't be different numbers at the same time but since I don't know how many machines the player has activated I did it like that and I do realize that those GetLocals are the problem, but how am I suppose to know how many the player has activated?
Edit: Shall I perhaps split it up so
else if Getlocal ==1
else if Getlocal ==2
RE: LocalVar and if-statements - Your Computer - 11-25-2012
You used && in your else-if statement. That's like saying, if AllMachineryUpAndRunning equals 0 AND equals 1 AND equals 2, etc, do this. If you used ||, then it would be like saying, if AllMachineryUpAndRunning equals 0 OR equals 1 OR equals 2, etc.

Understood, changed, worked. Thank you YC.
